Tuesday in College

Just as a warning, I didn't have my phone on me for a majority of the day so there are fewer pictures than on Monday's post. Well, I guess you could also count that a blessing, too.

You caught me on one of my school observations for my Teacher Education 100 class. Here my friend, Sheila, and I are on our way to Amherst. We had to be there, in the classroom by 8:00 AM all bright-eyed and cheery. I guess I better get used to this if I'm going to be a teacher someday.

I usually have TE100 and Intro to Political Science on Tuesday but because of the school observation my schedule was changed just a little bit. After those 2 classes I have brass quintet practice at noon and that lasts about an hour. From there I return to a practice room where I practice the piano assignment due for the day before heading to piano class.

Then, redemption again with band rehearsal. It's actually the Symphonic Band and the Wind Ensemble; they meet one right after the other on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday. On Wednesday it's only the Symphonic Band that meets.

Jazz Rock Ensemble is always a fun time for me. Although, it does make for a long night as the rehearsals run from 6:30 PM - 9:30 PM. Tuesdays are by far my busiest days and also where my endurance on trumpet is built as that is a LOT of playing for one day.

Here's something that rarely happens. My friends and I threw a surprise birthday party for one of our friends. I was labeled "the distraction" while the others decorated her room and got everything ready. It was a lot of fun but I think I ate a little too much cake.

Okay, now it's bedtime. Good night!
